Ecology and Conservation
The Ecology and Conservation degree course helps meet the growing demand for specialists who can find solutions to environmental and industrial challenges. Working in ecology and conservation involves protecting nature to ensure healthy ecosystems, preserve biodiversity and help support a healthier planet for everyone. Our Ecology and Conservation BSc(Hons) degree explores diverse ecosystems of all sizes – from microbes to whole habitats.
You’ll explore marine and freshwater environments in each year and build valuable GIS and remote-sensing skills. You will develop practical career-focused skills through laboratory and fieldwork in our rich local environment and overseas. The course is professionally accredited by the Royal Society of Biology.
